I Got A New "Gold Record" on "8Tracks": Om Chants [Free Streaming]

I'm actually surprised that this became so popular. Originally I wanted this record to be all "om" chants for meditation and/or yoga related practices. (Yes, I quite enjoy yoga and meditation for beneficial medical and emotional well being reasons.) Unfortunately, 8Tracks just refused to let my upload certain tracks. I have no idea why. I tried frequently for over half a year,  like 7-8 months of trying, until I finally gave up on certain tracks, and just uploaded Deva Premal and some ambient tracks at the end.

There was a weird glitch when I got the "Gold Record" on this album, which just WOULD NOT SHOW UP for about a week or more.... I tried to get in contact with the 8Tracks Team which is generally rather social with me, especially on Twitter, and frequently emails me asking me to create theme mixes... but, they were nowhere to be found... I guess they were sick with flue, or on a vacation... *shrugs*

Here's my Newest Gold Record:

Lots of Om Chants from BlackUniGryphon on 8tracks Radio.

And, here is my First Gold Record:

Gypsy Mix 01 from BlackUniGryphon on 8tracks Radio.

This one hasn't QUITE made it to gold yet...

Poof! Have Some Trance! from BlackUniGryphon on 8tracks Radio.

Wild, Whimsical, Free Spirited Raver Videos 001 [GRIMES]

I am always on the look-out for whimsical, weird, wild, free spirited, and artistic stuff.

If you like art, artistic, dreamy, stuff you might like some of this stuff I found this week. It reminds me of back in the 1980s when music videos were a certain kind of art, or art videos.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but to me some of the videos have that feeling, where as others feel like late 1990s Spice Girls, or Qkumba Zoo, however the sound is somewhere between 80s Synth Pop, and Goth Industrial, only lighter... It's not quite the "Bubble Goth" of Kerli, but sort of. And, it has a fusion of New Age and Rave videos.

So, who am I talking about? 

Grimes

This artist, is clearly very much an artist. Altho' some of her videos have some issues with the lip synching being off in the video, or her performance of her lip synching to her own vocals just looks more like she's just moving her lips instead of synching which doesn't look very good, I kind of wonder if it's done deliberately.

Her work also has that California or West Coast raver vibe to it, even tho' she has more of the "girl next door look" to her face at first glance, you can clearly see what a creative being she is.Got some Bohemian Hippie vibes, Mori Girls, Harajukua Girls, a blend of cosplay, and the psychedelic.I also think if you like Akara, you  might also like this.

I stumbled across her stuff this week, and kept stumbling upon more of it...

So, here ya go:

Some of the music reminds me of something out of an Ann Rice novel, while others remind me of Chinese Opera if it was on Acid, weird like Pentaphobe, or vaguely like Björk, or Enya.... only not...
